From Little Stack
Winfrey was a devoted fan of the Nobel Prize-winning author (she even starred in an adaptation of her book Beloved.) For her second-ever book club choice, she chose the elegiac and ambitious story of Macon "Milkman" Dead III, an African-American man living in Michigan from birth to death. Milkman is born in the chaos of a man's death and his life is defined by strife, familial drama, and the weight of his so-called inheritance. If you’ve never read Toni Morrison before, this is a great starting point.
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • An official Oprah Winfrey’s “The Books That Help Me Through” selection • The acclaimed Nobel Prize winner transfigures the coming-of-age story with this brilliantly imagined novel.
One of The Atlantic’s Great American Novels of the Past 100 Years. Milkman Dead was born shortly after a neighborhood eccentric hurled himself off a rooftop in a vain attempt at flight. For the rest of his life he, too, will be trying to fly.
As Morrison follows Milkman from his rustbelt city to the place of his family’s origins, she introduces an entire cast of strivers and seeresses, liars and assassins, the inhabitants of a fully realized Black world.
